Auditlog Causes Unit Test Failure

[AungKoKoLin1997]

Describe the Bug

Unit tests fail when there is a multi-company setup and an auditlog rule for the model.

To Reproduce

• Enable the auditlog module.
• Create an auditlog rule for the res.partner model.
• Ensure a parent partner exists with child partners, where at least one child has an assigned company_id.
• Attempt to update the is_company field of the parent partner during a unit test.
• The test will fail with an AccessError. OR
• Run the account_financial_report test cases with the auditlog module enabled to reproduce the issue.

This is the Traceback when I run test cases of account_financial_report.

Key Findings and Behavior Differences

1. Test Behavior When auditlog is enabled and an auditlog rule is configured for the res.partner model, the test fails with an AccessError. The error occurs because auditlog tries to access child partners, including those with a restricted company_id.

2. UI Behavior Performing the same write operation via the UI (e.g., updating the is_company field) succeeds without any errors, even when the user does not have access to the company assigned to one of the child partners.

3. child_ids Behavior When inspecting child_ids in both the UI and test environments: It includes child partners from different companies (or those without a company_id assigned). However, the AccessError only occurs in the test environment, not in the UI.

Debugging Suggestion

Create a new user and assign them to a new company. Log in with this user and try to update this parent partner(eg, partner type): https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/34947c01623a9fc753197bd55d6121d9c6fa682f/odoo/addons/base/data/res_partner_demo.xml#L73-L86 You can try to debug this line in the Odoo source: https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/34947c01623a9fc753197bd55d6121d9c6fa682f/odoo/addons/base/models/res_partner.py#L649 You will notice that child_ids include the partner that has a company_id different from the user's company. However, without auditlog, this partner is not included in child_ids.
